  Color is still very intact with little rim variation. The nose had dried dark fruit, dried flowers, leather and dusty earth. On the palate the tannins have completely integrated leaving a touch of sweet fruit and similar notes as the nose. Tasting more like aged Bordeaux than Napa cab at this point. I do not think it will improve at this point. Goes to show what a quality producer can do in an off vintage. Thanks Eric!

  An extremely well integrated package with oak and vanilla in proper perspective.

  부드러운 연유....
  보르도와는 조금 다른 잘익은 레드 와인
  
  부담스럽진 않았지만 그래도 전체적인 뉘앙스가 연우로 밖에 안느껴진 내 미각과 후각의 잘멋

  Fresh, complex, medium plus body, beautiful nose of black fruits, leather, tobacco, chocolate. Not much sweetness.

  Nearly 4 years since my last bottle. This needed about 45 min in the glass to open up and held up great throughout the night. At this point, it’s hard to tell it’s new world. This is in its prime and should drink well for a decade.
